Thanks all! Great races, more than 50 laps

For me this was an awsome learning experience of a kind that I've never had before in rF2.
1st race: A night mare. Was everywhere except on the track and on the race line
2nd race: Stayed on track the whole race and slowly began to learn the track
3rd race: Stayed on track, found consistent lap times and started to find half/hole seconds in some corners.

I know that the advise given to rookies like me is always "Do many, many laps, learn the track, find the racing line, then increase the speed". Well, tonight I learned that it's true

You know it's a fun combination when people are willing to run it three times...

Race 1 - Overshot the first corner because I was looking at my laptime (twice).

Race 2 - Same, this time with a spin into the wall at the penultimate corner.

Race 3 - Finally learned my lesson. We had a nice fastest lap battle going on where every couple of laps someone else set the fastest lap, and we were always very close to each other on track. That was really fun. I pushed 100% the whole way ("I push very hard")

This turned out to be quite fun! Didn't have anything else planned in the evening, so I snuck in about an hour before qualifying. Learned the track, learned the car, and just let what happened happen. All in all, was a pretty successful evening's racing. And doing it in the dark did add a fun element of terror to it.
